It's a pretty good interview. I saw it at 10pm.
ACC1224 10-19-2009, 10:10 PM Monday Night Football.....great game going on.
mapes 10-19-2009, 10:10 PM My speakers are messed, can someone summarize after it's over?
Actually, it's probably nothing I care about. Every interview he basically says the same thing. I think he talks just to listen to himself :laugh:
Make a trade Burkey or shut it. I think Leafs Nation has heard enough of your promises over the summer. Now it's time to get us into the playoffs.
robdicks 10-19-2009, 10:13 PM lmao
strombo: you cant fire the whole team, you fire the coach
burke: o ya? watch
Pick Six 10-19-2009, 10:13 PM George: Other GM's say you can't trade the whole team.
BB: Watch.
EDIT: That was it, beat me to it.
Solaris 10-19-2009, 10:15 PM I think it's a good interview, a refreshing approach after all the sports network type interviews Burke has been through. He got a big round of applause for the firing everyone comment :laugh:
iPunch 10-19-2009, 10:15 PM This is actually pretty funny so far. They're (playfully) going shot for shot with each other. :laugh:
Burke: I heard the judges were bad on that show (Strombo hosts Dancing with the stars)
Strombo: Half the guys on his show say they could make the current Leafs team.
robdicks 10-19-2009, 10:16 PM George: Other GM's say you can't trade the whole team.
BB: Watch.
EDIT: That was it, beat me to it.
yeah i added to it a bit because i was trying to explain the context haha but yeah haha
robdicks 10-19-2009, 10:21 PM lmao in reference to the olympics
george: if you were aloud to bet would you bet on the USA?
Burke: im not aloud to bet
Poggemon Destiny* 10-19-2009, 10:24 PM George: Other GM's say you can't trade the whole team.
BB: Watch.
EDIT: That was it, beat me to it.

RyanMac 10-20-2009, 02:46 AM Another funny comment from Burke that carries no weight. He says "oh yeah watch" but we will all watch while under-performing veterans get ice-time and wins drift away.

Bringing up rookies isn't the answer to getting more wins. Like it or not, these veterans have to pull things together on their own.

Kulemin is no rookie. Bozak is what, 24? please, he is not your typical "rookie"! Exelby just plain sucks and should be replaced by Gunnarrson.
There are changes that should be made.
What about Wilsons comment about seeing 6 or so rookies in the line up this year? :laugh: k bud!

The year isn't over.
The year isn't over.
Lets hope you are right and he gives them a shot before this team eliminates itself.
Newfie John 10-20-2009, 08:28 AM Haven't been able to find a video yet.
Raptactics29 10-20-2009, 08:31 AM The year isn't over.
It will be before we want it to be real soon if things don't change imho.. I agree with the poster above.. time to start shipping the garbage to garbage land!!
EazyB97 10-20-2009, 08:31 AM The year isn't over.
We've seen what, 3, in the first 6-7 games? Gusto, Bozak, Stalberg.

Like what? I see people say this all the time, and I never hear what veterans they want to sit, and what rookies they want to promote. Who comes up? Tlusty hasn't really earned a spot due to his training camp, so in my books Hanson is the best bet for a call up. He isn't going to save this team, so I'm not sure what you want to see happen.

Number13 10-20-2009, 09:46 AM Good interview. Can someone maybe explain the "Working Agreement" the Leafs have with Mannheim in Germany? Burke mentions that, and I remember reading about that a little while back, but what does it mean for the Leafs? Do we get first dibs on their players or something? Do we provide them with funding? Can they loan us players and vice versa?

I would also like to know the answers to these questions, if anyone knows them.

EXACTLY DUDE! Gunnarrson kicked major ass along the monster on the world level which is were RW saw them both play...these players we have - like bozak as well - and even kadri (look at duchene, tavaras...they don't seem to need to put on any "size") these guys would DO way better then our vets.
Who's our best player? Stalberg! What is he? A college rookie! Do the math....
go_leafs_go02 10-20-2009, 11:59 AM I quite liked that interview. He came across as personable, and also he does a plan in place, and our players aren't living up to it, I think they are mainly responsible for this start. And firing the whole team. I know Wilson's a proven coach, and I think the players just don't care about winning.
Made me feel a bit more comfortable with the direction this team is going - long term.
TMLeafer 10-20-2009, 01:17 PM "Is it a bigger job than you perceived it to be?"
A very blunt "no."
Nice interview.
Snipeshow 10-20-2009, 02:34 PM Well, let's see how Burke does it this time..
